It is time for our pollies to get real with water policy

One Nation has to question what is driving the Labor party in its quest to destroy agriculture in this country. It seems that while there is no problem in finding $43 billion to buy metropolitan votes with faster internet the cupboard is bare when it comes to Australia’s food security.

In taking the advice of the politicised Murray Darling Authority Labor has shown it had always intended on shutting down irrigation in NSW. When you combine this with the destruction of farmland in the Hunter from coal mining and market gardens being bought out and sold for real estate development then it goes a long way to prove that our governments, state and federal, are driven purely by the dollar and have no long term plan for our country’s future.

There has been no mention of water infrastructure, no talk of re-diversions, no suggestion of new dams just talk of the environment. As farmers are forced off the land our food production grinds to a halt only to be replaced with imported product. Add to this a carbon tax and we have a society who will lose not only their ability to be self sufficient in food production, but who will be at the mercy of massive increases in the cost of living and we will surely lose jobs offshore as companies search for ways to boost profits. These same increases in power cost will make it more expensive to pump water. Just another nail in the coffin of Australian enterprise.

One Nation questions why water allocation cuts are the same for our small food producers as they are for foreign owned multinationals who sell 100% of their product offshore. It seems yet again money will speak as this resource becomes scarcer. Anyone with common sense would ask why our government would rather import food then grow it here as imported food creates up to seven times more greenhouse gasses then it does to produce the locally grown product. Confirmation again, that an ETS is just another tax.

We challenge the Labor and Liberal governments to put forward a positive plan for our country’s water infrastructure instead of telling us why so many have to suffer in the name of their ignorance and the environment. Most of all we ask the voting public to question this insanity and put pressure on the main parties and the Greens where they hurt the most, at the ballot box.

Mission Statement

One Nation is for the regulation of essential services and industries, especially the Banking, farming and utility sectors. We believe in protection of our industry and borders.

Australia has deregulated and privatised itself to its knees. It has betrayed it’s populous by running down their utilities and totally ignoring that infrastructure needs to keep ahead of the pace of society.

In NSW Your electricity, communications, rail, hospitals, water, have been treated with neglect with the intention to privatise. The department of Agriculture has suffered the same fate and soon will be virtually out of existence.

Farms held in families for generations are virtually stolen from underneath by the greed and treachery of today’s power brokers.

The ATO has become a monster to the common people. Local governments have become a burden on their shires.

It will not be long before all our resources are sold and we become a third world country with the great divide being the difference between the have and have nots.

The greatest growth industry in Australia has become the bureaucrat, producing burdensome laws that create more red tape. They have deregulated all and sundry while at the same time have regulated the individual into the ground.

It is contemptuous that those Australian’s responsible have sat ideally by while their country compatriots have had their lives and future ruined. Now the ramifications of both State and Federal government legislation are glaring.

We believe in the commonwealth of Australia and not a republic. The Government must ensure that the Australian people retain their public utilities and that their services are not compromised.

We stand for rational management of the environment, agriculture and Fisheries; ensuring the maintenance of Fire trails in all National Parks and state forests. Giving Farmers and property owner’s back the use of their land and livelihood.

Responsible ownership of Firearms by Australian citizens for lawful purposes.

The rights of responsible organisations and clubs to exist for recreational activities, e.g. Social, horse and 4WD.

Tariffs and subsidies for industries suited to their competition. Abolition of the GST for an equitable tax across all income.

The overhaul of DOCS, Department of community services, and the CSA, Child support agency. To provide for a more humane provision of service.

The rights of the established Family unit to be a mixed relationship, between husband and wife as equal s.

The Armed Forces and Intelligence Services need to be equipped to ensure that our country is secure.

Water resources and management.

Employment, with sustainable and fair pay, conditions and salary packages.

The re-establishment of a competitive “Bank of Australia” and Government insurance office.

All contentious issues shall be put to referendum; The Australian people can decide for themselves.

A Nationally funded public health system that has the capacity in Facility, Plant and Staff to cope with a National

State of Emergency. Hospitals would also be returned to the control of the “Public Hospital Board”. This will restore control to the local community. One Nation supports the re-introduction of funding for community care programs such as meals on wheels the elderly and disabled.

GATS, LIMA, RIO, KYOTO, COPENHAGEN, WTO and IMF. One Nation has stood fast and will continue to oppose any treaty that is detrimental to Australia, its people, industries and way of life.
